why thank you, internets
Well, as you may have guessed, the post about Fallout 3 gracing the concrete walls of Metro Center went over pretty well. Let me refine that statement, actually. Once Joystiq picked it up, the Internet basically exploded (perhaps a slight exaggeration) with three ridiculous phrases that could very well be forever connected, thanks to Google and its insane archiving capabilities. “Like, LEGIT stared,” “Digital Metropolis,” and “Fallout 3″ will be forever linked together…that is, until the Internet crashes because no one has any money to cover the monthly server payments thanks to this financial avalanche.
Anyway, for those of you who linked to my little blog about the Fallout 3 ad in Metro Center, thank you. Seriously. It turned out to be a hilarious little turn of events that started with a phone call from Joystiq and ended with about 25 references on other gaming, political, and grab-bag blogs. This is the beauty of the Internet, I guess. Something as inane as a horrifically bad iPhone photo of a subway ad gets picked up, and then 24 hours later, 1500 people come to check out Digital Metropolis. I love how the Internet works sometimes. In short, thanks. I am listening to “Dollars and cents” by Radiohead and I can’t help but think that some of the people got a few dollars from linking to me from ad revenue and all I care about is the recognition on Google and Technorati!
Anyway — I want to give a quick shout out to “Kath and Kim,” the new comedy on NBC, for being absolutely wretched. I was definitely, definitely not the target audience, but…wow. Maybe the most unfunny show I’ve seen since the Geico Cavemen hit the airwaves last year. And on that note, good night!
